This, according to Kasami helped them get to know each other better and set a firm foundation for their marriage.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>She is reserved while he is the opposite. However, in her quietness, he finds his outspoken nature a good balance. Fiona Mary Nabuduwa Kasami is a tour consultant at Great Lakes Safaris Limited while her husband, Paul Kasami is tour sales manager at the same company.<\/p>\n<div class=\"paragraph-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"align--justify\">The two met at the company, which they joined in 2015. Nabuduwa had joined as a salesperson while Kasami worked at the reservations department.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"align--justify\">\u201cWe became close when we started leading prayers together at work. At Great Lakes Safaris, we usually pray on Monday and Friday morning before we start work, so we would organise prayer sessions where we would invite our colleagues, read the scripture and basically just talk to God,\u201d Nabuduwa says.<\/p>\n<div class=\"paragraph-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"align--justify\">After several of these prayer sessions, Nabuduwa realised that they liked the same scriptures; Psalms 103 (\u2018bless the Lord, oh my soul and forget not his benefit) and Psalms 91 (he that dwelleth in the secret place of the most high and many more other scriptures\u2019).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"align--justify\">Because of this, they became close friends and three years later, they started dating.\u00a0 Nabuduwa says she fell in love with Kasami because of his character. She says he is God-fearing, kind, loving and respectful. \u201cPaul stood with me through the good and the bad. He understands me better than anyone else,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"align--justify\">Kasami on the other hand fell in love with Nabuduwa because \u201cshe is down to earth, reliable and above all, she loves God.\u201d\u00a0 \u201cShe is also tall, beautiful and loyal. Many times, I would travel to the Rwanda office for days but she would call or send a message to see whether I was okay,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"align--justify\">Nabuduwa felt convinced to commit to Kasami when he finally took her to see his parents and then started talking about meeting hers too. At that point, she knew he was serious.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"align--justify\"><strong>Dating<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"align--justify\">She looks back at their dating phase with so much happiness remembering the time they would spend together at the weekend. At the time, she lived in Makerere with her brother and at the weekend, Kasami was more than glad to spend time at her home. This gave them a lot of time to relax after a long work week and get to know each other better. In the evening, they would take walks around Makerere University while holding hands. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.monitor.co.ug\/uganda\/lifestyle\/heart-to-heart\/-do-not-rush-take-your-time-and-date--3765898\">Click to read more&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Edgar R Batte Paul Kasami and Fiona Mary Nabuduwa Kasami dated for more than two years before finally getting married.
